Some requests for theIDE...
Editor:
Current line highlight. Useful eye candy...
Indentation guides. These help a poor slob like me a lot.
Folding of functions, structures, classes, etc.

If too hard with existing architecture, then OK. I can live without, I guess.

I have a disk formatted in ext3 which is totally accessible from both Windows and Linux. I have all my code on that drive. Many of the apps out there are to run on both Linux and Windows. So I like the idea of this program a lot. I'd love to be able to use the exact same project/package/nesting/assembly setup in both environments. That would really be cool. I'm not sure but I think only one thing is in the way: Paths to the package files. So with that,

theIDE:
In the .upp files (or wherever else) store relative paths from the package location to the files. The .wap file is located in an OS dependent location so it can point to the assemblies in the OS native way. But within those file, use relative pathing.

Lots of work, but if do-able, and the developers don't have the
inclination, and someone points me to the appropreate part of the code, I'd give it a shot...
